This thing is an absolute menace at 4.3. Unlike other highly armored tanks at that BR (e.g Kv-1), the Jagdpanzer IV is basically immune, even to some of the strongest TDs, like the M10.
Additionally, other highly armored tanks (again, Kv-1 as an example) have weak guns. The Jagdpanzer IV has one of the best guns at its BR.
And AGAIN unlike other highly armored tanks, the Jagdpanzer IV has no real frontal weakspot. Shooting the LFP won’t kill em, and it’s also pretty easy to hide the LFP.
Thats wobble from 1 cannon fire btw. I guess its like apache gun which has spread for better anti infantry efficiency. If they wanted precision they would use 2a72 which has reduced rof but also improvements in terms of accuracy
Vehicle: C13 T90 BR Change: No Change Reason: This is just a fat AUBL/74 that doesn’t get shredded by .50 fire to the hull (but still has the 8mm thick turret). It is already unpopular as it is; please leave it alone.
Same story as the Jagdpanzer IV. Insane armor, great gun, tiny silhouette, and its only weakspot won’t 1-shot it and is very easy to hit. It has none of the downsides that other highly armored tanks (like the Kv-1) have.
Vehicle: Chi-Nu II BR Change: 4.3 → 4.0 (GRB) Reason: Basically just a late model Pz IV with even less armor and uncapped APHE, but you get a lot more explosive filler. It being higher than a Pz IV is fine I guess, but 4.3 is too much.
The fact that there are videos out there of the russian 30mm doing stuff like this, yet in game it is more accurate than the bushmaster, is insane. Russia even stated in their own report that the m242 is nearly 4x as accurate as the 2a42.
Eh, I recall the self destruct range being only slightly more than 3km but I seem to be unable to hop into custom to test that and its getting late, so maybe tomorrow.
yeah exactly, on top of that the shitty gun handling (goes for most russian MBTs tbh), mediocre round compared to shit like DM53 and OFL 120 F1 etc etc, and only 3 crews in a compact placement does not help with survivability at all, the autoloader buff made it a bit better but id take a lecelrc over a T-90M all day everyday
